Northern Pennsylvania Regional College Cost & Financial Aid

At just $4,440 per year for tuition, Northern Pennsylvania Regional College keeps costs low for local students. Every student comes from Pennsylvania, avoiding the doubled out-of-state rate. Over two years, families pay roughly $8,880 in tuition alone.

Financial aid barely exists here. Zero percent of students receive Pell Grants or federal loans. Only 3% get institutional grants averaging $2,220. This suggests most families pay close to full price or the college attracts students who don't qualify for need-based aid.

The 5:1 student-faculty ratio with just 62 total students creates an intimate learning environment that larger community colleges can't match. Women make up nearly three-quarters of enrollment. The 38% graduation rate reflects the challenges many two-year students face completing programs.

Students who can afford the upfront costs without borrowing get the best deal. Local residents seeking personalized attention in a small-town setting find value here.
